Still surprised how that term managed to spread outside of NeoGAF... I have no "backlogs", and neither should you.
... what term? Backlog?
Do you honestly think that's a 'term' invented over at NeoGAF?

Backlog is retarded concept.

Doing some "to do" list when you're grown adult, with real life responsibilities, 12h+ job(s) and little time to play (if any), and do retarded lists with bazillion games that need more than 5h to beat) is just pure water cretinism, not to mention that every year more and more titles are released, then more and more land in your Steam library collection - these "backlogs" become perfect "retard magnet baits".
FFS why games can't be the only thing where you don't need to make an oaths and whatever? Just one thing where you can friggin relax and don't give a damn about deadlines and time in general?

It's easy way to turn your entertainment into job. Tedious task, filling progress bars and collecting XP (because every game these days have XP collection and other RPG elements).

Wow, you're a special kind of fucking retard aren't you? Yeah..

Listen, a backlog for games isn't a "to-do" list in the traditional sense. It's more like a bucketlist of things(games) you really want or are interested in, and that you know you are gonna do at some point.
Like going on a vacation you really want, but just can't right now for whatever reason, job/kid/money/time or whatever. It doesn't really have a deadline.

Nothing wrong with having a list - a backlog - of games you know you want to play, but havent gotten around to, but will eventually.

And lastly, go fuck yourself you fucking cancerous piece of potato-ass bitchtrash.

Every good CRPG, TBS and FPS, and their best user made content, made after May 1997.
Should keep me occupied a while...

Divinity Ego Draconis
Dragons Dogma
Risen series
Two Worlds 2
Arcania
Fable 2-3

Currently playing MGSV and Mordheim. Both big games.

Most looking forward to starting Age of Decadence, X-Com 2 and Dark Souls 2.

Completely agree. Racking up a list of games that MUST be played is a chore, a waste of money and can actually contribute to stress. I've had that problem with various media, books, movies. music etc. in both physical and digital formats and all I've got is a load of physical, digital and mental clutter. Attempting to consume all that media won't improve your life one jot.

Big ones are The Witcher 3 and MGS5. I only have an hour or two max per day to play vidya, and they're just so fucking long I don't know how I'll ever get through them :negative:

There are also a lot of classics that I missed and need to get around to playing, notably Thief and System Shock 2.

Playing MGSV at minute. Really enjoying it. Clocked up around 60 hours so far, just over half way complete.

Coincidentally Witcher 3.

How's the combat in it? Played a bit of Witcher 2 after Dark Souls and kinda missed the combat in DS. Appreciate they are different types of games though.

W3's combat is serviceable to decent imo. Worked fine to be fun, but wasn't really that difficult or thought provoking most of the time (on the normal difficulty).
